Sen. Edgardo Angara, meanwhile, was skeptical of the reported 4.6 percent increase in the gross domestic product (GDP) in 2002, saying he wants to examine the details first.


The National Economic and Development Authority reported that the GDP growth rate last year was higher than earlier predicted, and the highest since 1997.

                    [Summary] => A woman from Quezon must be thanking her lucky stars that a presidential son and his fiancee had stayed out until 2 a.m. in Muntinlupa City before calling it a day.


A belated report by the Presidential Security Group (PSG) showed that the rape of Rowena Budoy, of Tagkawayan, Quezon was prevented when the convoy of Dato Arroyo, youngest son of the First Couple, and his fiancee Kakai Manotok, passed by the crime scene at around 2 a.m. last Feb. 2.

                    [Summary] => Lack of funds to hone the facility of public school teachers in the English language would hamper the implementation of Malacañang’s directive to use English as the medium of instruction, opposition Sen. Tessie Aquino Oreta said yesterday.


Oreta, former chairman of the Senate committee on education, cited past studies showing that the English comprehension skills of a sampling of elementary school teachers were only equivalent to those of a Grade 7 or first year high school student.

                    [Summary] => The reported high growth rate last year would mean nothing if it is not felt by the common man, Senators Tessie Aquino Oreta and Joker Arroyo said yesterday.


Sen. Edgardo Angara, meanwhile, was skeptical of the reported 4.6 percent increase in the gross domestic product (GDP) in 2002, saying he wants to examine the details first.


The National Economic and Development Authority reported that the GDP growth rate last year was higher than earlier predicted, and the highest since 1997.
